i am male, 49 y/o and 10% bodyfat. with very good abdominal muscle tone. i was originaly considering a liposuction revision for very well delineated pockets of fat immediately around by navel and lower abdomen below the belt line. It was suggested to me to look into a practitioner who uses Kybella "off label" to deal with such problems. How effective is this treatment on the abdomen and (maybe ?) flanks? thank you

Answer: Kybella Kybella is very effective to treat small areas of fat deposits. It is very smooth and permanent. Common areas are lower abdomen, inner thighs, bra fat. Kybella is FDA approved to be used on the chin and neck.

Answer: Kybella for abdominal fat While there are some providers utilizing Kybella off-label for other areas of the body, my first choice for the type of fat reduction you are looking for would be SculpSure (cryolipolysis is also another option). Unless the pockets of fat on your stomach are very very small, Kybella off-label treatments for this area could get exorbitantly expensive. Additionally, there just isn't enough data on using this product in areas other than the submental area for me to feel comfortable recommending it to my patients. An option like SculpSure is indicated for adbominal fat reduction, provides great results with 2-3 treatments, and would likely be less expensive for you to pursue.
